re: #338 SanFranciscoZionist

Finished my Israeli movie.

Is it actually impossible for an Israeli director to make a movie with a happy ending? Is is something in the freaking WATER?

OK, “The Syrian Bride” ended on an up note, but still, this one pretty much ripped out my heartstrings. I know the ending was hokey, but I’m still sobbing.

Bloody Israelis.

On the up side, people actually spoke Hebrew in this one. I have a genius for picking Israeli movies to watch in which no one speaks Hebrew. This would be cool if I were trying to improve my Arabic. Or Georgian. Or English.

For an upbeat Israeli movie with a happy ending, watch “Ushpizin”
